Dear faithful People of Christ the King Lutheran Church:

With our Deacon for Children, Youth, and Family Ministry, nine youth, and five adults traveling through Luther sites in Germany; the choir on summer hiatus; Bible studies paused; and council on its July break, parish life is quieter these days. Still, our worship remains reverently dynamic. With many away or traveling, I invite you to pray for them or for yourself using this prayer from Responsive Prayer (ELW p. 331).

O God, our beginning and our end, you kept Abraham and Sarah in safety throughout the days of their pilgrimage, you led the children of Israel through the midst of the sea, and by a star you led the magi to the infant Jesus. Protect and guide us now as we set out to travel. Make our ways safe and our homecomings joyful, and bring us at last to our heavenly home, where you dwell in glory with our Lord Jesus Christ and the life-giving Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

Peace and Joy – and Courage!

Mandy
